UVOD U MISNA ČITANJA
I. Prorok Jeremija navješćuje spasenje i daje novo obećanje, a njegova sigurna nada nije u ljudima nego u Bogu koji je vjeran.
II. Pavao poziva kršćane u Solunu da se priprave za Kristov ponovni dolazak.
III. Isus uči svoje učenike da trebaju primjećivati znakove, procjenjivati ih te popravljati i mijenjati život kako bi na koncu života i vremena mogli stati pred Sina čovječjega.

Contact your IRA Trustee and ask for a change of beneficiary forms to include your parish or school as a recipient of your good stewardship.
Past generations of parishioners have taken great pride in making bequests to the parish. If you wish to perpetuate your own ideals, contact the rectory and they will give you some specific areas of need within the parish.
A gift of appreciated stock avoids capital gains tax. You will be able to deduct the full value of the stock, avoid capital gains tax, and make a substantial gift to the parish or school.

DOŠAŠĆE
Prva nedjelja Došašća otkriva nam konačni smisao našega života i ukazuje nam na našu konačnu nadu. Ponajprije se spominjemo Kristova prošlog dolaska među nas ljude i tako se pripravljamo na ovogodišnji blagdan Božića.
Svojim primjerom i svojom riječju usadio je u ljudska srca klicu mira i ljubavi. Idući za njegovim primjerom očekujemo njegov konačni dolazak i uspostavu njegova kraljevstva mira i ljubavi među ljudima.
ŽUPSKI VJERONAUK
se održava svake nedjelje pred župsku misu od 9:30-10:15 u učionicama župskog centra.
Upis vjeroučenika se još uvijek nastavlja.
USUSRET STOGODIŠNJICI ŽUPE
Nastavljamo sa slikanjem za župsku spomenicu. Nazovite Nancy Brkić u župskom uredu i predbilježite se za slikanje.
Idući datum slikanja za stogodišnji župski spomenar bit će 3. 4. i 5. prosinca. Možete se predbilježiti danas poslije sv. Mise kod Vlaste ili Nancy, a bila bi velika pomoć, ako biste se javili u župski ured kao dragovoljni pomoćnik pri slikanju.
